One Shot
Default is a 1 second, 1 degree shot. Intended to look at the diffraction image by eye in Albula.
Grid Scan (Rastering)
Default is 1 mm/sec at 1% attenuation. Intended for centring crystals by diffraction.
Screening
Default is 2 sec, 20 degree scan. Intended to calculate initial space group and unit cell information and to calculate a data collection strategy (not available yet).
Data collection
Default is 18 sec, 180 deg, 1800 frames. Full processing pipeline with fast DP
